The KÖMMERLING Challenge is KÖMMERLING’s major initiative to contribute to a shift in the construction model, accommodating high-energy-efficiency projects with a viable construction budget by integrating the most efficient and innovative construction techniques. The starting point for this challenge was the unique ‘Edificio Zero KÖMMERLING Architecture Competition,’ held in 2017, which serves as the basis for the brand’s new offices in Spain. The vision of the KÖMMERLING Challenge is built on several pillars: the training of architects; the use of new methodologies that consider not only construction solutions but also processes and workflows; and placing special emphasis on project certification and its various phases.

Bartlebooth launches its seventh experiment, Beyond the Human.

A new, multiple body that must be interrogated to understand spatial realities and unveil architectural possibilities that go beyond the human.
